Similarly, personnel working direct-ly with hazardous wastes shall have appropt-inte competencv to handle wastes, be in the form of education, experience, and training.

3.5 REQUIREMElYTS FOR PROPER WASTE U N A G E M E N T

W a s t e generator, regardless of size, shall adhere to the following waste management requirements:

1. Waste Storage Requirements

Waste generator shall comply with the storage and handling requirements as specified in Chapter 6 of this Procedural Manual

2. Pre-Transport Requirements

Waste generator whosc wastrs are transported outside its premises sha 11 complv with the pnc kaging and labeling requirements appropriate to the wastes being transported. In addition, waste generator shdl prepare a spill response plan specific to t h e wastes being transported. The spill response plan itlcludes the rollowing instructions to the waste transporter in the event of an accident:

a. Immediate reporting to the EMB-DENR

b. Securing or containing the affected area

r. Clvaning up spilled or leaked hazarrious wastes

Waste generator shall give a copy of the spill response plan t o the designated waste transporter and ensure that waste transporter personnel understood the plan. Moreover, waste generator shall ensure that the designated waste transporter has the necessary spill response equipment as indicated ill the spill response plan prepared for the wastes being transported.

3. U s e of Registered W a s t e Transporters and TSD Facilities

Waste generator is required to avail of the services of waste transporters and 'I'SD facilities that are duly registered by KMB Central Office and whose per-mits arc valid within the period that tht wastes are being transported ai~cI treated, stored, or disposed of.

4. Use of the Online Hazardous Waste Manifes t System in Transporting Hazardous Was te for Offsite Treatment, Storage, and Disposal

Waste generator whose wilstes are transported outside of its premises is rrquired to comply with the llazar-dous W a s t e Manifest System as described in Chapter 7 of this Procedural Manual.

5. Confirmation of Treatment or Disposal Completion

A s described in Chapter 7 of this Procedural Manual , ' E D facility shall issue Certificate of Treatment within 45 days aftel- the wastes are received for treatment. The waste generator shall secure the original copy from the TSD facility and include copy of this document as [>art of the quarterly reporting (SMR) to EMB. Original copy shall be maintained at all times in the facility.

3.6 PRE-TRANSPORT REQUDZEMENTS

Before wastes are t-ransported waste generators shall ensure that the risk of untoward incident during transport is minimized through the following pre-

I transport rrqujrements;

a. Container must be completely closrd and sealed. Bungs must be tightened. and lids must. be in place with bolt rings tightened.

h. Container must he inspected to ensure that it can he silfely transported without risk of spills or leaks. If a container is damaged, corroded, or othel-wi se structurally inadequate; wastes mu st he transferred to a new container or placed in an approved over pack drum prior to moving.

c. Transfer of a container between an area and a vehicle must be accomplished using appropriate equipment in a way as to minimize thy possibility of an accident or spill ,

d. In transporting wastes contained in bottles, ensure that the bottles are placed in a tray as secondaq containment or a c,art i s used with secondary containment.

e. When storing Lmttles containing wastes, avoid overloading the carts. Place containers w i t h the correct side up, into the boses using cardboard sep,vatjons or small amounts of other suitable packagng material, to cnsure the stability m d immobility of the containers within the carton during transport.

1'. Avoid burying small containers in packaging material or between larger containers where they may be lost or broken in transit,

22 1 , ' :.

Revised Procedures and Standards for the Management of Hazardous Wastes [Revising DAO 2004-36)

g. Do not store incompatible material near each other while waiting to have wastes picked up. A1 containers must be securely sealed and leak proof.

h. Bulk dry solid wastes (including contaminxt,ed disposable laboratory refuse, absorbed hazardous liquid wastes, and other nonvolatile solid wastes that do not contain free liquids) can be packaged in doublcd heay du t.y plastic bags, open top metal cans, or polypropylene or fjbcr drums. Consult wit11 the EMB Regional Office to determine whic,h type of cant-ainer should be used for the types and amounts of dry waste being generated.

i. Semisolid wastes and other volatile solid wastes jincl uding solid chemical wastes that are wet, corrosive, generate toxic or flarn~nable vapors, or otherwise require more secure packaging than dry solid wastes) should be plared in a wide-mouth jar or other container that is compatible with the waste and prevents leakage of liquid vapor,

The Contingency Program is developed and designed to mitigate and combat spills involving chemical substances and/ or hazardous wastes. The Program provides assurance to EMB, nearby communities, and other stakeholders on the emergency preparedness and response c,apacity of waste generators, transporters, and TSD facilities.

8.2 CONTENT OF THE CONTINGENCY PROGRAM

At a minimum, the Contingency Program shall contain the following aspccts as discussed in the succeeding sections.

8.2.1 Emergency Response Organizational Structure

The Emergency Response Organizational Structure shall clearly define the key members of the organization and their specific roles and responsibilities. The structure shall include the linkage hetween the organization and the government agencies such as EMB, Fire Department, Philippine Coast Guard (in cases where the location of the plant i s near coastal arid marine waters), Local Government Units, and other relevant local and national agencies.

Various models can be used as pattern for the Emergency Response Organizational Structure such as the Incident Command System. The important consideration is that the structure depicts the span of control of the organization in terms of activating its personnel in emergency cases.
